EXPERIENCE SUMMARY

Extensive experience in writing DXL
and supporting the administrators/users of several large databases.
I have written hundreds of tools to solve
generic problems and also to provide specific solutions/ fixes to individual
problems.

Some of my achievements are listed below: -
Coded and helped to design a customer/ supplier interface for use by our
suppliers who do not use DOORS (to do this I utilised my strong Visual Basic
skills and OLE Automation knowledge)

Designed and Coded a fast and efficient Word Exporter, this exporter is
considered by the company to be better than the IBM equivalents of WEXP and
DocExpress and has been in use for the last five years. Wouldn't
need to do this today as the Publishing Engine tool is now up to
the job.

I advise
on the co-ordination of requirement writing and verification activities, how to
efficiently administer access rights and promote rich traceability through suites of tools.

I helped design and was solely responsible for implementing
a requirements change process which also incorporates a customer/ supplier
interface element.

I have compiled many tools for generating metrics. I have generated a hazard log
system, which modifies several modules simultaneously
through the use of forms and links.

I have generated a DOORS Visio interface
that exports a hierarchy of DOORS objects into a GSN diagram.

I have designed
and coded a traceability tool which creates dynamic or permanent views of data
for modules connected through the links (this works on one or more levels and is
better in many ways than the traceability/Impact Wizard)

I have generated a tool that allows users to enter their test results
where the test is attached to several requirements, but the pass fail criteria
for each test/ requirement pair may be different. This technique involves the
use of forms and link attributes
